Put a Barett M107 and now we're talking

The tactical capability of this is amazing, its like every sniper in Call of Duty could fly over the map with an aim bot

Dear Military,

Pack this shit in before you doom us all. Seriously, it might even be too late for that but for god sake, are you trying to make the future full of terror/uninhabitable/non-existant?

Wow this looks amazing can you imagine the killing power if this had a .50 Cal on it. and not to mention how many snipers this might save.

It would be beyond powerful.

And save what snipers? The whole point in a sniper is being outside your enemies firing range and picking off targets and by the time they notice where you are you should have moved to a new location. Snipers who don't move get killed. Crap snipers don't move.

You have to deal with kill teams after the shot, the fact you are behind enemy lines, and the fact you have to exfil. I have heard stories of people literally passing within less than a foot from where the person was hiding.
